How to setup TrumpCoin patriotnode on Ubuntu
A patriotnode is a server on a decentralized network. It can be uses to complete unique functions which ordinary nodes can’t. It can be used for features like direct send/instant transactions or private transactions.
Because of their increased capabilities, patriotnodes typically require a sizable investment in order to run. But this is where incentivization comes into play, as patriotnode operators are rewarded by earning portions of block rewards in whatever given cryptocurrency they’re facilitating.
patriotnodes are nodes running the same wallet software on the same blockchain to provide extra services to the network. These services include:
Anonymization increased privacy of transactions
Instant transactions
A decentralized governance
A decentralized budgeting system
Immutable proposal and voting systems.
